It has been reported that there might be a new wake word, Calypso, and is working even if you have alexa as wake word.
I was not able to test this yet as my son is sleeping but will try it first thing tomorrow.

if true, dont watch any Jacques Cousteaus shows...

I tried it, too. It responds intermittently, and my guess is it's a bug. There are likely plenty of words it could respond to. So, who wants to volunteer to sit down and read the Webster's dictionary to the Echo? Not me.

one thing for sure, aint no way I would be able to say calypso the first thing in the morning.
-
Even if true (and I suspect this is more of one of those random bug things rather than a real wake word) it's a terrible word.
We need more two syllable wake up words, not more three syllable ones.
